Synopsis
Poor manhwa author Chamallow travels to rural friend, reflecting on urban poverty and shared labor struggles.
Chamallow, a manhwa author struggling with poverty, goes on a trip from Seoul to visit his friend Chilchil, who moved to the woods of Dabudong to escape the restlessness of the city. On the train, he reminisces about his recent times working tough manual labor jobs (노가다) while squatting vacant apartments, and about the people who shared these endeavors with him in various ways, making them a little more bearable.
